MPN: R409C-LWM
The Airmar R409C-LWM Wide-Beam Chirp Transducer is a professional-grade sonar unit designed for anglers and boaters who demand reliable bottom detection and fish-finding capability across diverse water conditions. Built for performance in freshwater and saltwater environments, this bare-wire transducer integrates seamlessly into existing marine electronics systems without requiring proprietary connectors. Whether you're targeting structure on a lake bottom or tracking pelagic species in coastal waters, the R409C-LWM delivers the dual-frequency data you need to make informed decisions on the water.
This transducer operates across three distinct frequency bands—low, wide, and medium—each optimized for different sonar tasks and water depths. The wide-beam design provides broader lateral coverage, allowing you to survey larger areas of the water column with each sweep; this is particularly valuable when searching for suspended fish or mapping submerged vegetation and rocky outcrops. CHIRP (Compressed High-Intensity Radar Pulse) technology ensures superior target separation and clarity by transmitting a range of frequencies simultaneously, resulting in crisper sonar images compared to conventional single-frequency units. The bare-wire configuration offers flexibility in installation, allowing direct integration with compatible chartplotters and fishfinders from major manufacturers.
The R409C-LWM is ideal for serious tournament anglers, charter captains, and recreational boaters operating vessels between 18 and 40 feet where space and power efficiency matter. Installation typically involves transom or through-hull mounting, depending on your hull material and preference for permanent or temporary deployment. Verify compatibility with your existing sonar unit before purchase, as transducer connectors vary across manufacturers. At just 1 pound, this unit adds minimal weight while delivering maximum sonar intelligence, making it a practical upgrade for anglers seeking advanced fish-finding technology without system overhaul.
